2,049 people were killed by hit-and-run crashes in 2016, according to the report. 65 percent of those killed were pedestrians or cyclists.

According to an AAA news release over the last decade nearly 20 percent of all pedestrian deaths were caused by hit-and-run crashes. During that same time period only one percent of all driver fatalities were caused by hit-and-runs.

That’s a 62 percent increase from 2009.

More than one hit-and-run occurs every minute in the U.S., according to the news release. 2016 was the deadliest year since 1975 when National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began compiling statistics on fatal motor vehicle crashes, according to the news release.
